Online Challenge with Tanner Foust
October 22nd, 2008 by Jordan
Professional drifter and rally car driver Tanner Foust announced his involvement with an online Gran Turismo 5 Prologue competition. It’s pretty straightforward – just set the best time in the new “Tanner Foust Racing Competition” online event, taking place on the London city track in a Nissan 350Z with Professional physics. The fastest time at midnight on November 2 will win a trip to the Red Bull Drifting World Championship in Long Beach, some head-to-head racing with Tanner in GT5:P, and a few laps around the real course in his car. Second and third place drivers get an autographed copy of the game and a Gran Turismo T-shirt. It’s good to see Sony encouraging these competitions, using the game’s online functionality to scout out the best players. Hopefully, we’ll see a GTPlanet member hanging out with Tanner in a few weeks. Best of luck to all!
